Updates and More

It's been awhile since I last posted here. Many things have happened in between.

One, I already reclaimed the PR3 pagerank of this site. Yahooo!

Second, I already delivered a beautiful and healthy baby girl. Hallelujiah! We all adore her.

Third, while I was on the hospital, I had the chance of watching a not-too-old movie entitled 21. After Avatar, I haven't got the time to stay long on the PC or TV to watch movies so it was a welcome change to sit back and watch a movie while recuperating from the delivery. I so enjoyed the movie.

BTW, 21 is about an MIT student who dreams of getting into Harvard Medical School, but doesn't have the money to finance it. In a stroke of luck, he impressed one of professors who invited him to join a group of students whom he secretly "trained" to become card counting experts to beat the casinos. According to Wiki, the film, directed by Robert Luketic, was inspired by the story of the MIT Blackjack Team.

For me, it was exciting to see these smart students having a "double life." I haven't played casino games, not even in an online casino, in my entire life and so I am totally, totally thrilled to see the group's success at the casinos. I don't understand the game but I am amazed at the card-counting techniques they use to win in the blackjack games. In a scale of 1 to 5, I rate the movie with a 4. And that said, I am tempted to try some casino softwares and learn to play blackjack so I can at least get the idea of what the blackjack team was doing. *smiles*

Swingin' By

I didn't realized that it's already more than a month since my last post at Verb. Goodness, where was I all this time? *chuckles*

I really couldn't believe it. And I couldn't believe it either that I used to be so addicted to blogging (and bloghopping, too!) that I missed lotsa meals, sleep, etc... before. But those were the days. Somehow, unexpectedly, I am miraculously cured of the addiction.

So if you're wondering what I've been up to these days, I've really been busy living out. Sometimes, it gets so hectic here that I wish for a quiet escape online. But I also have a ball making most out of Life - offline. :-)

Wake Up!



I haven't even slept yet.

It's 4AM already. I'm in the office working blogging. I have restrained myself from blogging at home; besides, the tot won't permit that to happen. All I have is 5 minutes -after that is a busted PC, trust the tot. But I'm not complaining -I'm loving the stage Matt is in now. And it's so fun to be with a someone who is still discovering things for the first time.

G'morning to all!
